2009-5-25 向大长句子学习

例句：That Louise Nevelson is believed by many critics to be the
greatest twentieth-century sculptor is all the more remarkable
because the greatest resistance to women artists has been, until
recently, in the field of sculpture.

·首先看because前面的半句：
要点1：以“That 人话”做主语
例：That Mr. Zhang is a great teacher has been believed by many of
his students.

很多学生相信张先生是一位伟大的老师。
要点2：all the more=more
例：I respect him all the more because he has
faults.
因为他有缺点，我反而更尊敬他。
要点3：sth./sb. is believed by sb. to be sth.
例：English is believed by many people to be a universal
language.

·再看后半句：
要点：将人话用until recently一切两半的语言节奏：
例：My ex-girlfriend has been, until recently, the only
onetakingcare
ofme.

通过对所有重点套儿的分析，可以得出译文：“由于在雕刻界，对女性艺术家最强烈的反对也只是最近的事，所以Louise
Nevelson被很多评论家认为是‘21世纪最伟大的雕刻家’的事实显得更加不寻常。”
